What is Drugs Selectivity ?
‚ Several reaction pathways are generally associated to a given receptor, and lead to various cell response.
‚ Differential activation of those reaction pathways, that differs between (natural or synthetic) ligand
‚ Drugs Selectivity =
Ligand-dependent selectivity for
certain signal transduction

Key concept in pharmacology
˛ Drugs Selectivity (or Biased Signaling) is a key concept to be distinguish from
‚ Partial or full agonist.
‚ Antagonist, inverse agonist.
‚ Affinity (K

ñ Candidate screening requires to accurately quantify bias.
Theoretical foundation
A receptor may adopt several spatial conformations, each of which has different activation pathway profiles.
Conformational selectivity = Ligand-specific modification of the energetic landscape, changing affinities and efficacies of signaling patways.
Kenakin, J Pharmacol Exp Ther (2011)

A receptor may adopt several spatial conformations, each of which has different activation pathway profiles.
Conformational selectivity = Ligand-specific modification of the energetic landscape, changing affinities and efficacies of signaling patways.
Similar concept : modulating bias
Kenakin and Christopoulos, Nat. Rev. Drug Discov. (2013)
Minimal setting
To speak about signaling bias, one necessarily needs two ligands and two responses, in a same cellular context.
ñ We always compare a ligand with respect to a reference one.

Summary
‚ Notion of signaling bias to quantify differential activation of several pathways by a Ligand at a given receptor.
‚ Standard quantification has several drawbacks (no time, limited to sigmoid scenario, et).
‚ We gave a kinetic interpretation of Ligand biased, which rely
on dynamic (ODE) modeling and parameter estimation with
L
1penalization.

ñ How to deal with ”fuzzy/noisy” PLE / Densely sampled time data ?
ñ How to deal with non uniqueness of the penalized solution ? ñ How to perform a model reduction that would lead to both a
satisfactory fit and identifiable parameters ?
